I want to know what you guys think the biggest trolling cliffhangers that the trollmaster has ever pulled are. I think issue 47 is notable where we were led to believe Alice was a traitor (thank God she wasn't but she died anyway), issue 53 where Eugene said he knew how everything started and then shrugged it off next issue, issue 83, not because of Carl's 'death', but because of how easily the herd was dispatched. I guess you could argue that's a turning point in the series where zombies aren't a threat anymore but whatever. Lucille is coming is another notable one and I think issue 106 where nothing happened to Carl is another one to mention. Thoughts?

Imagine a group of a hundred motorcycles driving down a freeway. Eventually, they hit a junction. One road goes northwest and the other goes northeast. So one guy, we'll call him S, says, "Let's go northwest!" A mile past the intersection, a semi careens into the group and kills ninety of them. Ten are wounded, but they survive and keep going. Eventually, they hit 10,000 miles. S suddenly has his consciousness thrown into his past body right before the junction. Now, he says, "Let's go northeast!" All 100 bikers survive. Happily ever after, right? But what about the ten, no nine, who went northwest and survived? What happens to the reality they were living? Does it just disappear now that S has changed the past? It's not like only bad things happened on that 10,000 mile journey. Maybe one of them fell in love with a gas station attendant and got her pregnant or maybe one adopted a homeless kid that joined the adventure. That 10,000 mile journey would be full of stories. Romances, farewells, friendships...the loss of those ninety lives is horrible and unfortunate, but what would rewriting their history mean? The nine who survived lived full lives and did the best they could with the hand they were dealt. How could it be right to just erase all that? Isn't that worth something? Is there a point to a world where everything is happy? Are people who struggle for a better life just idiots? Being human is about fighting even when it seems hopeless and finding happiness in a world that hates it. Are you saying that's worthless?

"Lucille is coming" is the biggest troll, but not the biggest troll cliffhanger.

I joined this forum because of that cliffhanger, too! At the very least Negan could've spanked him. What a load of crap

I'm so happy that he didn't hurt Carl, if he had, I would've stopped reading, but I really thought he was going to try to raise Carl as his mini Negan....side note the ambigious parental threats were always the worst.

That was brutal. The twin zombie girl heads were horrible and the realization that everyone comes back sucked so bad, I was soooo shocked, my profile pic is from a cup of tea I had at a coffee shop on the day that I read that volume.
